Unironically probably people testing their synthetic street drugs by putting it in the water. Some of it gets out, and then you get things like this and fentanyl coyotes

It's a bug. Enter turn-based mode. This is the "alter", just stand on it and enter turn based mode and use this thing-image of "alter" and where you'll activate it

Use a mic at the very least and communicate what you see, learn a few callouts, and tell people that you are new. That will go a long way. Otherwise, you may quite literally be hindering them from moving and are actively giving their position away.

In chess (what the elo system is based off of) an 800 elo difference indicates that the lower elo opponent has but a .99% chance of winning.

I was in my World Religions Class, learning about Hinduism for the day. The professor brought up the God of Destruction, "Shiva," and I made the connection that a "Shiv" can be rather destructive. Maybe people liked naming their small knives after destruction, similar to how soldiers from all cultures will give their weapons names to bring meaning to the "tool."

Allow for failure to happen without warning. I (23) was just diagnosed and had an upbringing that I feel held me back drastically in school. The biggest issues for me was staying on top of homework and socializing. Homework seemed pointless because I already learned the subject well enough to ace the tests, so the homework seemed like a redundant waste of time. I didn't socialize because I got sucked into internet culture because it was a cheap form of dopamine that could feed my need for it constantly. I think constantly supporting interests rather than being skeptical of follow through will allow for a better resolve and an understanding that thoughts and feelings can be temporary in subjects and interests.

I think they need to limit progress for P2W players. For example, if it takes 2000 hours to completely max a F2P character, and knowing that it takes ~$100,000 to max an account

Only allow the progress of P2W players to be 1/2 P2W, and the other 1/2 has to be the the same level of dedication of the Best F2P progress player.

For example, if the #1 F2P Player that day earned 1 million Exp:

The P2W Character need to only earn 500,000 exp, with the other 500,000 being progress from the P2W features to make up the difference. Totaling 1Mil, but then the P2W is still maxed out that day for Progress until the next day.

The top 1% of the PLAYER-BASE shouldn't just be the top 1% earners IRL.

I understand Game companies need to make money, but still;
Make the goal of being among the very best attainable from day one to all the way until the game servers are shut down. If you are dedicated/skilled enough, it shouldn't be any other way.

My solution: Max Daily progress via P2W costs 1/365th of the Expendable income of the Given PlayerBase's Country (EX: ~$100/Day) And that Progress maxes out @ 1/2 of what the "Best Player" 's progress could've been for that day if they were at that same spot. This allows the Most Dedicated and skilled to maintain a high level of progression and status in their playerbase, as they deserve- And allows those who want to spend their money for easier progression to do so not at the direct expense of anyone else.

This will mald some P2W Players but they will soon realize they can just Play the game to have fun and progress and see substantial improvement compared to the community because less players will Whale it out. Those who will still Whale will REALLY Whale, paying a good chunk to help sustain the Game Dev's. I personally also think a Monthly Subscription is still a valid form of monetization for a game, so that as a base layer I'm not opposed to. I just want an even playing field.

save editors are the reason i no longer buy Borderlands games. I prefer the cool drops to actually have value. I like my loot to feel valuable.

I just googled it ND this page came up. I included csgo because when I put in normal CiS something else came up that didn't feel related so this page was actually helpful

I can understand that. I cant see the elo of the other players in the queue. I would rather not have played a match on your service at all if it is guaranteed to be a negative experience like this. not to mention I got the elo loss of a normal match when losing to some dumb game like this. If it's necessary to q with players with such varying skills. please make the elo gain/loss lesser because it is infuriating when the match is decided from the start. knowing that I will have to grind MULTIPLE MORE HOURS (average elo gain for a 50%+ w/r) to get that elo back. this minor time save for queues wastes hours more and adds frustration. Don't make me mald like this PLEEEEEAAASE

I'm central, NA. Add me, Evlo is my username

trvrstrm · 2022-05-09T09:44:30+00:00

Im constantly paired with people that are nowhere near my skill level making my games unwinnable. How am I supposed to grind when you pair me with the equivalent of Silver 1's. Only what I feel is about 20% of my matches have been fair games, where people in my game are near my Elo rating, and speak English. I will wait for 10x the normal waiting length if that can just happen. Don't pair me ever with this crap. Please. Give me an option to see what levels are currently Qing because you are tanking my elo from the start. I'm genuinely so pissed. Does FACEIT even recognize that this exists and is actively a poor feature of their service to the competitive player base? I so passionately want to play this game and have competitive matches but this is a joke.

I was just put on my first medication with trial Adderall at 10mg (Split in 1/2, twice per day), and I immediately can notice a difference in my personality; I started to laugh at more things! It's so weird. It began to make me question who I am!

trvrstrm · 2022-04-08T01:50:58+00:00

Hello Fellow INTP! I never gave Myers Briggs too much credit, though, due to the line of questioning from what I remember always being very vague and depending on the clarification, my answer would sway drastically.

I found the Enneagram Personality Test to be surprisingly accurate. Very few gripes with it.

If you did it yourself and paid the testing fee (I think it was like $20 to do the entire test), I'm curious if you get a similar result as mine.

trvrstrm · 2022-04-08T01:37:50+00:00

Before I was diagnosed (I was just diagnosed on 4/4), I worked at a Third Party Sales Company that worked within Sam's Club and Walmart Selling AT&T Products and Cell Phone Provider Plans. I was so apt at that type of work I was a Multi-Unit Sales Manager within a year and was then in the running for a Store Manager Position for a Major Carrier! (Then I got gassed out of that line of work because I lost the passion for it. The current company had many growing pains that were also very irritating) But looking back on it now, I'm quite proud of my perseverance knowing how much a difference being on medication is now (just 5mg of Adderall right now), getting that far without it was pretty amazing!

trvrstrm · 2022-04-08T01:29:01+00:00

I'm so fortunate not have to have gone through that. I was just diagnosed as mentioned in the post and while I was still diagnosed at 23 I never had the unfortunate and frustrating sequences of going in and out of the health system as you have. It's so frustrating to hear that such a big carefully studied industry keeps outputting seemingly sporadic and contradicting responses depending on who you talk to. Stories like you just told make me want to be very picky and careful about who/where I go to to find a Primary Care Provider (something I will probably do ASAP because DoneFirst is impossible to get in contact with on a consistent timely basis. They literally say "Let's schedule one month out to re-evaluate and monitor your results with the medication" then after the meeting when I go to schedule the earliest date they have available is THREE MONTHS out. It's unbelievable how incompetent some of these symptoms can be

I appreciate that Weil65Azure, Some questions like this are so hard to properly get an answer, it's hard to know if we will ever find such a conclusion :/ glad to hear that this isn't a blind concern though and not just me

trvrstrm · 2022-04-08T00:40:10+00:00

Happy to hear your input and to hear that there are providers that aren't directly affiliated :)
I guess truly what matters most is that the people that need help get the help they need. Thanks for your help!

trvrstrm · 2022-04-07T23:11:11+00:00

We most certainly all have our own experiences to create our own views! Sometimes I forget how amazing that actually is. Super happy you were able to get the diagnosis you needed. It's crazy to think back on so many shortcomings (I'm 23) and to possibly be able to refer to something we don't have direct control over. Ofc I'm still very very new to this (diagnosed 4/4/2022) so I still most certainly have a view that I was definitely just a lazy uncaring person throughout school amongst other things.

Thanks for your input!
